Chapter 659 Arguments and Accusations

Lich Bud snorted angrily: "My proposal is perfect, you are too radical! You are bewitching Lord Gloria with your own influence!"

Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "Mr. Bard, are you too conservative?"

In fact, in all fairness, Bard’s plan of occupying the villages first to accumulate strength, and finally to fight against Silver Star City, is very feasible, and the winning rate is also extremely high for the death kingdom camp, which can be called "old-time seekers". .

However, this strategy still follows the old path of killing all civilians as cannon fodder, which is contrary to the purpose of Bai Xiaowen's founding of the Cursed Sect.

Another point is that the time for Bai Xiaowen to do this "Battle of Silver Star Island" is very limited - the Baihuang team only has about a week to stay in the world of Aaron! This task must be completed within a week!

If you adopt Lich Bard's proposal and gradually accumulate the strength of the undead army, let alone a week, it may not be possible to complete the task in a month.

Of course, Bai Xiaowen would not explain these reasons clearly.

Bud sneered and said: "I'm conservative? Dio Skelboom, how long have you lived, and how long have I lived? Don't take ignorance as courage, and prudence as cowardice. Young man, you still have a lot to learn .”

The corner of Bai Xiaowen's mouth twitched:

"Mr. Bud, you have been living as a prisoner for hundreds of years, right? Surrounded by ignorant undead, your intelligence has obviously degenerated, and you don't understand the way of thinking of living things at all. Too short."

"The plan to storm the Silver Star City is really difficult for an old guy like you with poor imagination to succeed. But under my command, capturing the Silver Star City is easy! Remember, this is between you and me. There is a gap in commanding ability and commanding art, and we do not accept any refutation."

Lich Bud was furious: "It's unreasonable! I will sue you to Lord Gloria, arrogant human being!"

...

When Bai Xiaowen and Lich Bud went to the hut at the entrance of the village to see Gloria, suddenly a small figure came out like a frightened deer. It was the little girl Sonia who almost hit Bud's skeleton above the body.

Originally, with the spiritual sensing ability of Lich Bud, he would have found this little girl early, but the front was Goliath's room. Out of respect for the master, he did not dare to release the mental scan, so it was so embarrassing.

"Hmph," Bud, who was already full of anger, looked at the little girl's two soul fires fluctuating slightly, and the skeleton's jaw opened and closed: "Little girl who doesn't know how to live or die." A skeleton staff gleamed with icy energy, and an energy-absorbing spell was cast.

Bai Xiaowen reacted very quickly. With a wave of his hand, the butcher blocked the path of the energy absorbing spell. After consuming this basic spell, he swung the giant snake scepter at the head of Lich Bard.

"You're crazy!"

Lich Bud was taken aback, and quickly backed away to avoid it, and then became furious, "You actually attacked your colleagues for a little human girl?"

Bai Xiaowen crossed his arms and squinted at Bud: "Be honest, Lich. I have killed more than one guy with your strength...Marcus, remember? Well, there is a guy named Kyle , are all your 'inmates'."

"You..." Bud looked like a balloon that had been punctured by a needle, and his aura instantly became shorter. He once saw the process of the White Phoenix team fighting against the monster group of dragon descendants in the tomb of the dragon, and he was actually very afraid of this young human being. Otherwise, if a lich is being ridiculed like this all the time, Bard would have already done it.

"Thank you... Archbishop Dior!" The little girl Sonia was obviously frightened, saluted Bai Xiaowen and ran away. In front of Goliath's door, only the white phoenix team and Lich Bud were left, who were on the verge of saber-rattling.

Fortunately, at this moment, Gloria's voice sounded:

"Come in."

Bud had the steps, and quickly agreed to push the door open. Bai Xiaowen and the other three followed behind.

Gloria was sitting on a dilapidated wooden stool with a wreath on her fingertips.

There are only scattered small petals on this garland, which are obviously woven by small wild flowers on the side of the road.

The little wildflowers that were just picked were still very fresh, but under the infestation of the ubiquitous death energy on Gloria's body, the little wildflowers were slowly withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Hearing the sound of the door, Gloria twirled her fingers lightly, and the withered wreaths were broken like ashes and scattered down.

"You seem to have reached a conclusion." Gloria's cold voice sounded.

"Sorry, Lady Gloria. Our plans are very different, and neither of them can convince the other party." Bai Xiaowen shrugged.

Bud muffled the opinions of the two of them. Of course, he described Bai Xiaowen's proposal in a slanderous tone as much as possible. However, Bai Xiaowen was very calm - to be precise, he was confident in his ability to fool, even if Goliath had accepted Bud at the beginning, he was sure to win him back.

Gloria listened quietly, and spoke after Bard finished speaking:

"Dior, how sure are you of storming Silver Star City?"

"I need to understand the situation of Silver Star City first. The information collected so far is not enough. I can only confirm the power on the surface of Silver Star City." Bai Xiaowen didn't brag, but told the truth. It's easy to confirm, but if the total number of leader-level powerhouses does not exceed eight, I have a 90% chance of winning."

On the bright side, the standing army of Silver Star City is about 2,000 people. As for the strong, there are the lord Aldington, the chief mage Moluo, and the commander of the city guard Murat. This information was collected from the villagers of Glauber's Salt Village, and Gloria and the others knew about it.

"Hmph, bragging, anyone will say it." Lich Bud muttered.

Gloria nodded slightly: "Then prepare for the battle according to Dior's plan, directly occupy the Silver Star City, and then attack the surrounding villages and towns. Bud!"

The Lich was shocked.

"From now on, Dior is in command of the Undead Legion, and you must fully cooperate with his actions! If necessary, I will also personally participate. In addition...you are not allowed to interfere with Dior's actions to establish the Cult of the Damned."

Lich Bard was silent for a few seconds: "Yes, master."

Bai Xiaowen took the opportunity to say: "Then, Mr. Bard, please first ensure that no human being will be intentionally killed without my consent."

Bai Xiaowen immediately recounted the scene at the door to Gloria with embellishments, and finally made a generous statement:

"That little girl named Sonia, she and her family are the first group of believers who took the initiative to join the sect, which is of great significance to the sect, and is equivalent to a weathervane for other villagers! If Mr. Bard really kills her, A newly established sect can easily fall apart, and no one wants to be in a sect organization that may kill him at any time."

Bud said angrily: "We are undead, they are life! The two sides are naturally hostile!"

"Bud, without my order, you are not allowed to kill civilians indiscriminately. This is an order. Disobeying my will means the end of your soul." Goliath said simply.

"Yes." Bud said with his head bowed.

Gloria's threat was domineering and effective, she stood up:

"Alright, Dior prepare the battle plan to attack Silver Star City, Bud will assist you."

"Yes." Bai Xiaowen agreed, and exited the hut with Qiao Rui and Li Shuyi.

But Bud relied on not leaving immediately.

"What's wrong?" Gloria glanced at the Lich.

"Master, I have some thoughts that I want to report to you."

"Come on, keep it short."

"Don't Master think that Dio Skelboom is not credible as a human being?" Bud said sinisterly, "In the final analysis, he is a human being, and he is not the same as our undead creatures. Judging from the strategies he formulated and his attitude toward This can be seen in the protection of human beings. I think he will betray us sooner or later, it is better to clear him out as soon as possible to maintain the purity of the kingdom of death."

"Finished?" Gloria squinted at Lich Bud.

"Hmm." Bud was a little uneasy, not sure what Goliath was thinking.

"I see. You step back." Gloria waved her hand.

Bud couldn't figure out what Goliath was thinking, so he could only retreat quietly.

...

Silver Star City.

This ancient city has a history of hundreds of years. It existed before the Lionheart Empire unified the continent of Aaron. Later, the knight lord Kevin Des captured the northern border and entrusted Silver Star Island to the lonely knight Aldington.

So far, the Aldington family has ruled over Silver Star Island for more than three hundred years.

Lord Aldington of this generation is an out-and-out lunatic. Bai Xiaowen suspects that he has a high degree of persecution paranoia. The main city was built as a war fortress.

On the majestic city wall, which is ten meters high, there are bed crossbows lined up on the battlements on both sides of the gate, and an arrow tower rises every ten steps. There are also Crusader soldiers in armor patrolling the city wall. .

This battle is much tighter than the defense of Beijun City.

However, just because the lord himself is a war lunatic does not mean that all his subordinate soldiers are lunatics. There has been no war in Silver Star City for decades, and it is impossible for the soldiers of the Crusader Legion to maintain their vigilance consistently. Taking those patrols as an example, their patrols are basically errands, similar to The leisurely mentality of clocking in at work, followed by a newspaper and a cup of tea.
